Multiple OpenVPN clients have the same gateway address

[DavidGA]

I have two OpenVPN clients connecting to different endpoints at the same public VPN provider, and although they receive different interface addresses, they both receive the same gateway address of 10.11.0.1.

I believe this is the cause of my LAN rules only working for the first one, outgoing traffic for the second one just times out - but it starts working if I stop the first VPN.

I cannot seem to manually override the gateway address, it seems to be specified by the server which I have no control of.

Is there any solution to this?

Thanks.

Just found this post after I experienced the same problem.

I've seen a tutorial for multiple clients and the way it's setup is that the server openvpn has 2 server instances.
Eachnwith different tunnel networks and remote/local subnets.

Still nitnsure if that's the way to do it. It requires another port (e.g. 1195) to be open.

My thought was I can have 1 server instance and multiple clients for it.
